Ruhan's P.O.V
Hye,I am Ruhan Malik.I have been in this school for as long as I remember. I'm good at studies and in sports. I love playing cricket. It's my second love. I mean my First love is and will always be RIWA KAPOOR.
She is a beautiful girl with long black hair,big round brown eyes just like me it's just that mine are a bit darker than hers. She is 5'6 feet tall. She has a pointed nose ,the most beautiful smile I have ever seen and not to forget her dimples. She is a real beauty with a tanned skin.
The thing that make her even more is her oblivious to her own beauty. She didn't even know how beautiful she is. I have seen boys staring at her when she isn't paying attention and that makes me want to kill them for looking at MY GIRL. Well not exactly b'coz I have never been able to confess my love for her. But you can't blame me for that coz I don't wanna loose her- Never.
I may sound stupid saying this but I prefer to be friends with her than losing her forever.
She thinks that she is an ugly duckling which is actually very stupid of her.
Once I was passing by her and she was talking to her friend. Her friend teased her saying what would be her answer if someday I(Ruhan) proposed her. Believe me I was so excited to hear her answer that my heart was beating like crazy. But her reply literally broke my heart into pieces.
She said,"oh c'mon,stop joking. We both know that I'm an ugly duckling so that's never gonna happen and even if it does that will surely be some dare or prank. So,stop your nonsense"
I don't know who made her believe or what made her think that she is ugly. When in fact she is the most beautiful girl I have ever seen.
That day, I decided that I'll never ever confess my feelings to her b'coz that may result in her cutting me out of her life completely which scares me to death.
Even though, whenever she is around me (I mean mostly b'coz we're in the same class since last 6-7 years) my emotions went out of control. I just wanna be near her, talk to her, hold her hand and confess my love.
So, today when I saw her sitting alone on the stairs near our class I couldn't help it and went to her. At first she was surprised but still greeted me. I don't know why but she had never talked to me herself. It is always me to start a conversation between us but that really doesn't matter as long as she replies me back.
When I asked her how is she? She made those weird but cute face that made me laugh and she blushed. How badly I wanted to touch her cheeks and kiss her but I controlled myself.
I was talking and teasing her when my teammate-Ryan interrupted us. I cursed under my breath but still said bye to Riwa and went for my cricket practice.
After practicing for an hour I changed my clothes and went to my class. As i entered I saw Riwa sitting with her beat friend Akshita. They're always together almost inseparable.
Riwa looked towards my direction and smiled. I smiled back. Oh God! I want to see that smile everyday.
Anyway... I went to my desk, kept my bag and sat down. I sat alone coz my best friend abhi-Abhishek was absent.
After few minutes our teacher came & started teaching but I wasn't paying attention. My full attention was on Riwa. She was listening attentively & had that concentrated look on her beautiful face.
The bell rang which means the class is over. I saw Riwa leaving and quickly packed my stuff and ran after her.
"Hye Riwa."I greeted her with a smile.
"Hye Ruhan. How was your practice?" She asked me with a smile.
"Good as usual. Are you free?" I asked to which she gave me a confused look.
I smiled and answered her unasked question. "I need your help with something."
"Oh...but how can I help you?"she asked
"Actually you know we're celebrating sports week next week." She nodded her head. "So, it's compulsory for sports students to make poster and submit them till this Friday and my drawing is just blah." I made a disgusted face.
She laughed and promised me. "Ok...I'll help you but I have a lecture now. So, I'll meet you at 12 in the canteen..what's say?"
"Alright...Thank you." I thanked her.
"No problem Ruhan." She waved at me and walked away.
As promised, she met me in the canteen & we went to an empty classroom so that she could draw without any disturbances.
I must say her drawing is amazing. She drew a man holding a cricket bat ready to hit the ball and on the upper side of the poster, she wrote a slogan which we had copied from google.
This whole time when she was making the poster. I was staring at her & wanted this moment to never end.
When she was done making the poster. It was time for her to leave. I desperately wanted to come with an excuse to stop her from leaving but at the end I decided against it.
I walked her to the school gate as coz she was going home but i had to stay for my practice.
"Hm..Thank you Riwa for your help. I....she cut me off.
"Oh c'mon Ruhan. No need to thank me again and again..we're friends remember." She said and smiled.
"Yeah." I said
We stood there and stared at each other for a moment.
"Hm...goodbye Ruhan." Riwa broke the silence and waved at me.
"Goodbye Riwa." I said and smiled at her.
After Riwa left, I went back inside and headed to the playground for my cricket practice.
